In 2017, Daniel Defense, known for its AR-15-type rifles, became one of the first established manufacturers to offer a firearms suppressor that was constructed by metal additive manufacturing, a process commonly known as “3D printing.” Known as the DD Wave, it was a pioneering step in lightweight, high-performance suppressors. New for 2026, Daniel Defense is introducing two new 3D-printed suppressors, with the MUTE30Ti and the NULL9Ti. The MUTE30Ti is designed for bolt-action and precision rifles. The internal architecture of the MUTE30Ti is designed for maximum sound reduction, reduced recoil impulse and controlled flash signature. Both the MUTE30Ti and NULL9Ti use…
So, I recently had the pleasure of attending “Plinkapalooza” at Range Ready in Robert, LA; you might recognize this as the home range of the Gun Talk crew. “Plinkapalooza” was designed to be a celebration of everything rimfire; we had handguns, carbines and rifles in everything from .17 HMR through .22 Mag., with a heavy emphasis on .22 LR. Events were tailored around showcasing the abilities of these firearms and ammunition, but the most important thing was for it to be fun. Folks, when I’m telling you it was a LOT of fun, I’m not exaggerating. I’m probably understating it.…
(Continued from Part 4. This concludes the article.) Medical needs I don’t often have to call a vet, but establishing a relationship with a large animal vet is crucial. If you don’t have a relationship, you will have a terrible time getting help when you need it. It’s worth it to spend money with the Veterinarian. I use them for my cats and dogs, as well as my cows. We are on a first name basis now. I needed them when my first cow went down hard with milk fever. I know how to prevent that now. I needed them…
On May 16th, 1903, George Adams Wyman began the first transcontinental motorcycle ride, in San Francisco. Riding a 1.25-horsespower (90 cc) “California” motorcycle designed by Roy Marks, he arrived in New York on July 6th. — May 16, 1943: No. 617 Squadron of the British RAF began the famous Dambusters Raid, (Operation “Chastise”), bombing the Möhne and Eder dams in the Ruhr Valley with bouncing bombs. — May 16, 1997: Zaire’s president, Mobutu Sese Seko, ended 32 years of dictatorial rule, giving control of the country to rebel forces. — Just two days left! We are running a two-week-long sale…
Despite the warning “we’ll sue” to protect the very commonly owned AR-type rifles—often called “America’s rifle”—issued by both the NRA and the U.S. Department of Justice, Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger (D) signed Senate Bill 749, which will make it illegal to sell, purchase, import, manufacture or transfer this legislation’s definition of “assault firearm” starting on July 1. The NRA, along with the Firearms Policy Coalition, the Second Amendment Foundation and two NRA members, immediately filed a lawsuit challenging this unconstitutional ban of commonly owned firearms. The case, McDonald v. Katz, was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District…
Armed Citizen® Today On May 11 in Cambridge, Mass., a man began firing a rifle as he walked down a busy street. Security video from the incident showed the man yelling and firing erratically as he walked. The man is reported to have fired 50-60 rounds, striking two men and at least a dozen cars. As people abandoned their vehicles and fled in the stopped traffic, an armed citizen and a state police trooper fired back at the assailant, striking him multiple times and ending the attack. The suspect is a 46-year-old with a significant criminal history who was out…
The modern Henry Repeating Arms is known for taking the classic American lever-action design and bringing it into the 21st century with a number of modernized variants. The new SPD Predator, an extension of its magazine-fed Lever Action Supreme Rifle design, looks to extract the greatest possible degree of accuracy and precision from a modern lever gun. Watch our “Gun of the Week” episode above to see how the SPD Predator’s construction lends itself to long-range use. “Henry established its SPD, its Special Products Division, to bring out unique designs based on Henry’s line of lever-action rifles,” American Rifleman Executive…
You don’t have to be a scent-control junkie to appreciate a good pair of rubber hunting boots. They’re perfect for those late-season whitetail hunts when you need to layer extra socks, run some toe warmers, and keep your scent to a minimum. But, they’re also necessary if you spend a lot of time in warm, swampy conditions. Unlike application-specific boots, you can use a good uninsulated pair all year round.However you use them, rubber boots should keep your feet dry above all. Over the past few decades I’ve had the opportunity to hunt with and test the best rubber hunting…
William English, an assistant professor at Georgetown University’s McDonough School of Business, published the 2021 National Firearms Survey, which was a massive survey of 54,000 American armed citizens. He was later subpoenaed by a number of anti-gun attorneys general to turn over his research, attacked in The New York Times and by many other “mainstream” outlets and, basically, pilloried by the gun-control Left so loudly that he wrote an opinion piece for The Wall Street Journal titled “Antigun Activists Ambushed Me.” In it, he said, “The survey outraged gun-control advocates, who believed it could hurt them in court. They proceeded…
Tommy Ballard refused to let his daughter’s disappearance fade away. After Crystal Rogers vanished in 2015, Ballard became the face of the search. He organized volunteers, worked with investigators, and publicly called out the man he believed was responsible.A year later, while hunting with his grandson, Ballard was shot and killed.The attack was precise. Intentional. And, to many, not a coincidence.As investigators worked to unravel both cases, one question loomed over everything: was Tommy Ballard murdered because he got too close to the truth?Got a tip about this case or know about another you think we should cover?
